Volume 3 Pure Country Chapter 218 Qingsang Auction House Branch
Hearing the words of the housekeeper Liu Cheng, Liu Qing was expressionless, and just said calmly: "If it is so easy to let Wen Chenghua succeed, how can the Shi family live in Pingyang City for so many years?"
Liu Qing leaned his hands behind his back, slowly walked to the small pavilion in the center of the pond, and said as he walked: "After dealing with them for so many years, don't you know what kind of people they are?"
"Yes, whether it is Shi Changqing, Wen Chengming and Wen Chenghua, they are all scheming, and they are all very ghostly. Butler Liu Cheng slowly followed behind Liu Qing and nodded and said.
"Therefore, our Liu family must wait and see what happens, and let the Shi family and the Wen family fight first, and then we can benefit from the fisherman!" Liu Qing stopped, turned to face the pond, raised his head slightly, and said lightly.
The housekeeper Liu Cheng just nodded and didn't say anything more.
And Ye Mu, who had been in Shifu for several days, was really bored to the point of exploding, and he had been staying in a small room, which was really boring.
This is not like a cultivation room, you can stay in it for a long time, this is a room of the Shi family, staying in it, there is no intention of wanting to cultivate at all.
Ye Mu lay on the sofa, crossed his legs and turned his head to look at Jiang Mo, and asked, "Senior, why don't we go out for a walk?" It's too boring to stay in the room!"
When Jiang Mo heard this, he was silent for a moment and said, "I'm also a little bored, but didn't Brother Shi say it, it's better not to go out at will in the near future!"
Hearing this, Ye Mu instantly sat up straight, stretched his neck towards Jiang Mo and said, "What's wrong with us walking around Pingyang City?
"But......" Jiang Mo stopped talking, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Then when Brother Shi comes, let's talk to him, it's not polite to sneak out!"
"Okay!" Ye Mu leaned back and nodded.
Originally, I came to Shi Hao with great anticipation, wanting to play a trick in Pingyang City, and inquired about the news of the sword technique.
didn't think about it, but when he encountered this incident in the Shi family, he wasted five days in the room in vain, and Ye Mu's heart was naturally not very happy.
After a while, Shi Hao came to the room, heard Ye Mu's words, and after being silent for a while, agreed to the two of them going out.
For convenience, Shi Hao also gave the two a lot of gold coins, but he himself couldn't accompany him because of family affairs.
Ye Mu and Jiang Mo originally wanted to dress up in disguise, but Shi Hao felt that it was very strange, once someone saw through it, it was easy to be considered a bandit.
For the sake of insurance, he showed himself as a rich son, after all, Ye Mu and Jiang Mo looked like the image of a handsome son, so there was no sense of disobedience.
The two changed into the clothes of the son-in-law and left the stone mansion and came to the bustling streets of Pingyang City.
"Whew...... Comfortable......"
Standing in the crowd, Ye Mu raised his head and took a breath, as if a prisoner who had been locked up for a long time had seen the light of day again.
"Let's go, take a look around!" Jiang Mo held a folding fan in his hand, smiled slightly, and raised his chin slightly towards the front of the road.
Ye Mu was dressed in a black robe, his hair was tied up, and he was holding a black iron fan in his hand, looking like a rich son.
Jiang Mo was wearing a blue and white pale robe, but the folding fan in his hand was golden, he had a gentle smile on his face, and at first glance he was a gentle and elegant scholar who came out of the scholarly door.
The two walked slowly side by side, their handsome appearance naturally attracted the attention of passers-by, and many women cast admiring glances, but Ye Mu and Jiang Mo just smiled, as if they didn't see it.
Walking and walking, he suddenly heard someone talking about an auction in front of him, Ye Mu couldn't help but take two steps forward and asked, "A few big brothers, sue me for taking the liberty of saying that you just said the auction?"
The three men turned around when they heard the sound, and when they saw Ye Mu in the image of Gongzi, they couldn't help frowning slightly, and one of them said, "What's the matter, Gongzi doesn't know?"
"Uh...... I really don't know this!" Ye Mu smiled awkwardly, and then said.
"Presumably the son is from out of town, recently Pingyang City wants to auction some things, and it is in the Qingsang Auction House branch. The man nodded knowingly and said slowly.
"Qingsang Auction House Branch?" Ye Mu nodded, hugged his fists and thanked him, then returned to Jiang Mo's side and said, "Pingyang City will hold an auction for three days in the past few days, and today is the first day. ”
"Auction, do you want to join in the fun?" Jiang Mo raised his eyebrows slightly and asked.
"Go and see, it's idle anyway. Ye Mu nodded with a smile, asked someone on the side of the road, and the two headed towards the auction hall.
In about twenty minutes, the two of them saw a magnificent attic, judging from the fact that the guards at the door were all True Xuan Realm, the owner of this attic should not be of low status.
"This should be the branch of the Qingsang Auction House, but we don't have much money on us, I'm afraid we won't be allowed to enter!" Jiang Mo shook the folding fan lightly and said slowly.
"It's not a lot of money, but we can fool around! With our outfit, where don't we look like rich people?" Ye Mu lightly slapped a piece of clothing with his left hand and grinned.
"What you said makes sense, but in case you get a goof, then ......" Jiang Mo looked at Ye Mu with a pair of eyes and reminded.
"In case of a gang, just say that we are the guests of the young master of the Shi family, no, we have no money, the Shi family has money!" Ye Mu thought about it, blinked his eyes, and said.
Saying this, Jiang Mo no longer refuted, followed Ye Mu towards the auction hall, walked in, and sure enough, he found that the attic plaque read, "Qingsang Auction Floor Pingyang City Branch".
As soon as Ye Mu stepped into the steps in front of the attic with one foot, he was stopped by the guard at the door, who had a serious expression and was holding a big knife in his hand.
"The auction hall is heavy, and idle people are not allowed to enter!"
The guard's emotionless words reached his ears, Ye Mu frowned, patted his chest with the black iron fan in his hand and said, "Do you think we are waiting like idle people?
Hearing Ye Mu's words, the guard looked at Ye Mu, looked up and down, and then said, "In an extraordinary period, please show the invitation letter when entering the auction hall." ”
"Invitation, what invitation?" Ye Mu was slightly stunned and asked.
"You can't enter without an invitation letter, so please return it. The guard pointed to the street and said lightly.
Ye Mu had no choice but to retreat, Jiang Mo said softly: "It seems that there is an auction of important items being held in the past two days, and it is heavily guarded, and only those who have received an invitation can enter." ”
"I don't know if there are any clues about the Imperial Sword Technique?" Ye Mu said secretly in his heart, but unfortunately he was not allowed to enter, and he suddenly pouted and felt a little unhappy.
Looking at Ye Mu's sullen appearance, Jiang Mo smiled slightly and said, "Since we are not allowed to enter here, let's go elsewhere first, maybe there is something interesting to do." ”
"That's all it can be......" Ye Mu replied with a sad face, and followed Jiang Mo out of the Qingsang Auction House branch.
In fact, the Qingsang Auction House has branches in almost all cities, and Cloud City also has it, but at that time, Ye Mu didn't have time to go shopping in order to participate in the knockout round, and after the game, because of his injury, he finally left Cloud City directly, so he didn't know.
Walking on the bustling streets, looking at all kinds of pedestrians and vendors, Ye Mu's mood improved slightly, and around the corner, the two came to a teahouse.
This teahouse is peculiar, with only a roof, no walls on all sides, no boxy tables, just some futons and some tea sets.
The people who came to drink tea all sat on the ground, making tea and drinking it by themselves, such a novel way aroused the interest of Jiang Mo and Ye Mu.
The two walked into the teahouse, sat facing each other, looking at the pile of tea sets in front of them, Ye Mu frowned, he didn't know how to make it at all.
However, Jiang Mo seems to have done it, and he is very skilled step by step.
Ye Mu also looked at the operation of the people around him, and learned to make a pot of tea, in fact, they didn't come to this teahouse to experience the fun of making tea by themselves, but to collect some news.
This teahouse is located at the intersection of the road, with a large flow of people, and the fee is not expensive, many people will come to drink tea, so it is easy to find some news here.
Although the sound of their conversation was not loud, Ye Mu, who had comprehended the power of the sword intent, and Jiang Mo, who had transformed into a Xuan Realm cultivator, could clearly hear the conversation between them.
"The finale treasure of this auction seems to be a technique, and I heard that the little master of the Wen family is bound to get it. ”
"I don't think so, the Liu family and the Shi family won't let him get it easily. ”
"You don't know yet, the second master of the Shi family seems to have been poisoned, I'm afraid that his life will be short. ”
"Where did you hear that?
"Of course it's true! Don't you notice that the Wen family and the Liu family have become a lot quieter these days? I'm afraid they are all waiting for the news of the death of the second master of the Shi family, so that they can take the opportunity to suppress the Shi family. ”
"Hey, be quiet, don't be heard!" the man lowered his head and looked around, and lowered his voice.
At this time, Ye Mu's ears sounded Jiang Mo's Xuanqi transmission: "It seems that this Pingyang City is not too peaceful, we will really pick the time." ”
Ye Mu glanced up at Jiang Mo, gave him a wry smile back, shook his head again, and drank tea alone.
The two of them not only heard about the three major families in Pingyang City in the teahouse, but also heard that a distinguished guest was coming to the auction in the past few days.
It seems that this distinguished guest was sent by the headquarters, and no one knows who it is, only that this distinguished guest will appear on the last day of this three-day auction.
"The finale treasure is an exercise, could it be the Imperial Sword Technique?" Ye Mu thought back to the news he had heard before, and couldn't help but guess so.
Therefore, whether it is the sword trick or not, Ye Mu has to go into the auction hall to see what it is, if it is the sword trick, then he will make a lot of money.
The two sat for an hour before leaving the teahouse, and on the way, Ye Mu said softly: "This auction, I have to go in and take a look at it anyway, there may be clues I want to get in it." ”
"Oh?" Jiang Mo paused, patted the palm of his left hand with a folding fan in his hand, turned his head to look at Ye Mu and said, "Then we have to find a way to get the invitation." ”
